Cats evicted for Bush library

UNIVERSITY PARK, Texas, - Members of the Southern Methodist University feral cat program in Texas said the George W. Bush presidential library will leave the felines without a home.

Althea Webb, a volunteer with the university-funded program, said feral cats are relocated every time the school demolishes or creates a building and their current home, the future site of the George W. Bush Presidential Center, is difficult to move the felines away from because of the difficulty in getting the cats to migrate across streets, The Dallas Morning News reported Wednesday.

"It's hard to move cats," Webb said. "Cats don't like to move."

She said volunteers move the colonies of feral cats by relocating shelters by small increments.

Webb said she is concerned officials with the Bush library will want the cats completely off the property.

"The Bush library is going to want to be new and beautiful," she said. "We'd love to have elegant matching kitty condos, but we're not going to do that."

It is hard to move cats. It’s like herding cats.

Cats don't like to move

It's even tougher herding them.

Pull the food.
The cats will move.

I can’t get over how much people humanize animals.

Quick, someone teach the feral cats to be Mexican cats.

Yup.
I am willing to bet this Althea Webb woman is an 0bama supporter, a tree huger, and a member of the Animal Liberation Front, not to mention a vegan, a signed up Daily Kos member, and a card carrying Bush hater to boot.
I know the type.

Totally correct. They follow the food. My cat just got pretty miffed at me because she did not have the requisite amount of dry food in her dish for the night! Little piggy.

Thank God for the doggies nicer attitudes... even tho’ my husband says they’re Democrats. (Live off of us - sleep all day - always demanding more).
